Street Fighter V will be a fighter that aims to expand Capcom's fan base by offering up something unexpected for gamers, according to series producer Yoshinori Ono.

"With Street Fighter V, we have a fantastic opportunity to create something with a larger scope. A game that encompasses all that Street Fighter has become in the last few years, but which also expands on that to become something it has never been before as well," Ono told Edge (via GamesRadar).

"So now we want to create something that nobody is expecting," Ono went on to add. "It’s going to be a title that caters to fans, of course, but one that also invites completely new players onto the scene. Street Fighter IV was about reviving a passion. Street Fighter V is about growing that passion."
